City opts to extend medical pot moratorium

Teen hit by car dies of injuries Second teenager charged with felony hit-and-run in Highlands accident

BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com

Renton City Council appears ready to delay a ban on medical marijuana facilities and instead passed a six-month extension of the current ban on permits and licenses for the businesses.

The city’s current moratorium was set to expire Sept. 24. On Monday, the City Council accepted a committee report on the extension. It will be presented before the council Sept. 15.

The City has repeatedly said it hoped the legislature would take action on the issue of medical marijuana, providing direction and regulation to cities in the same way they handled recreational marijuana, but that did not happen in the past session.

Councilman Ed Prince, who heads the Planning and Community Development Committee said the lack of regulation and direction forces cities to be the [ more MEDICAL page 5 ]

Tiffany Park community turns out to oppose 98-home development The City of Renton finds itself in an awkward position, as officials try to offer information to upset Tiffany Park residents about the sale and development of an undeveloped parcel of land in their neighborhood.

At a meeting Tuesday night at Tiffany Park Elementary School, a room full of disgruntled residents showed up to listen and offer their comments and questions concerning the Renton School District’s sale of 21.6 acres of land to Henly, USA, a group

that wants to develop single-family homes on the property. The City of Renton’s Senior Planner Rocale Timmons facilitated the meeting.

The school district purchased in two separate transactions in 1960 and 1972, two swaths of land intended for a middle-school site. The district has since deemed the property unsuitable for a school because of student growth elsewhere in the district and the proximity of two other elementary schools. In 2013, the school district approved the purchase and sale agreement to Henly, USA for their development.

The company plans to develop 96 lots and retain [ more TIFFANY PARK page 5 ]

The best seat in the house for the past 26 years

BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com

In the world of high school football, players come and go, coaches come and go, even stadiums come and go.

But in Renton, there has been one constant at every football game for the past 25 years: stadium announcer Greg Salcedo.

Salcedo, an IT analyst by day, is headed into his 26th season as the voice of Renton Memorial Stadium. The gig may not pay much but it gives Salcedo the opportunity to do what he loves: stay involved in youth sports.

“I believe in youth sports,” Salcedo said. “Some people play golf, I come here.”

Salcedo said he started in Renton in 1988.

About 10 days before the start of that football season, he got a call from Renton’s then-athletic director asking if he’d take over in the booth.

“Their guy just decided he’d had enough,” Salcedo said.

He jumped at the chance. Plus, he said, it was finally an opportunity to put those broadcast journalism course he’d taken at the University of Washington to good use.

“It was nice, doing this, that my mother could see the tuition was good for something,” he said with a smile as he prepared for the season’s first home football game, Lake Washington at Hazen, Sept. 4.

Salcedo, 62, said he has always loved football and played in high school in Everett. He said he does not have time to be a coach, but calling the games allows him to stay involved in something he hopes makes a positive impact on the students.

He also hopes to give the kids their moment in the sun and takes great pains to learn how to pronounce all of their names, both for the students and for the parents sitting in the stands. After all, he said, for many players this might be the height of their football career and they deserve it.

“They should have their names said correctly,” he said. “They should be honored for what they do.”

Salcedo sees his role as important to the overall atmosphere and the game, but wants to make sure he does not take away from the kids or the game.

“I’m to be the host here,” he said. “We don’t do play-by-play here and we’re not homers.”

Salcedo makes all of the announcements at the stadium but also keeps his eye on the action on the field. After every play, Salcedo announces the ball carriers, the tacklers and gives a down and distance for those in the stadium, but said he views himself like the officials: they are at their best when the fans don’t even notice they are there.

“The competition is on the field,” he said.

And in his years, Salcedo has seen some good competition. Through all of the league changes and classification changes, Salcedo said he likes the current mix in the Seamount League.

“We see a lot of good teams,” he said.

Asked about the Renton teams he sees every week, Salcedo said Renton was known for speed, Lindbergh for its “toughness” and Hazen for “a little more sophistication” in its plays.

Though from his view in the press box he does

Greg Salcedo and his crew Mike Baccus, Dave Huff and Jim Boyd call every game. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter have some advice for the coaches: “The tight end slant is open. It’s been open for 15 years.”

As for the competition, Salcedo also has a favorite.

“I always love it when Kennedy comes. They come with an attitude, but it’s a winning attitude,” he said. “Kennedy and Renton, these are the speedburners. And if you want hitting? Renton and Kennedy.”

Salcedo and his crew in the box, Mike Baccus, and Salcedo and his crew could not get in. Kaelin Dave Huff and Jim Boyd, also give ESPN-style called for maintenance, but game time was fast nicknames to some of the kids. approaching.

Along with the teams, Salcedo has also lived through a major renovation Welcome Dr. Meng Lu! at Renton Memorial Stadium, one that moved the press box off the roof and into it current safer location.

It’s not you, that PSE bill does stink Former city councilman dies Billing statements from Puget Sound Energy arriving in mailboxes over the coming weeks might smell a little rotten.

A newly designed natural gas safety brochure is being sent out to more than 1.1 million PSE customers throughout September. In addition to lots of important information about what to do if there’s a suspected gas leak, there’s a scratchand-sniff section that’s a reminder of the rotten egg odor associated with natural gas.

To help detect gas leaks more easily, PSE and other natural gas utilities add an odorant called mercaptan to the natural gas, which is naturally odorless and colorless.

Everyone in a family needs to recognize the stench, and know what to do if they smell it.

What to do if you smell gas: • If a natural gas odor is detected inside or outside a house or building, or if a leak is suspected, everyone should get out immediately.

Phone and Internet Discounts Available to CenturyLink Customers The Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission designated CenturyLink as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier within its service area for universal service purposes. CenturyLink’s basic local service rates for residential voice lines are $15.00 per month and business services are $30.00 per month.

Specific rates will be provided upon request.

CenturyLink participates in a government benefit program (Lifeline) to make residential telephone service more affordable to eligible low-income individuals and families. Eligible customers are those that meet eligibility standards as defined by the FCC and state commissions. Residents who live on federally recognized Tribal Lands may qualify for additional Tribal benefits if they participate in certain additional federal eligibility programs. The Lifeline discount is available for only one telephone per household, which can be either a wireline or wireless telephone. A household is defined for the purposes of the Lifeline program as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses.

Lifeline service is not transferable, and only eligible consumers may enroll in the program. Consumers who willfully make false statements in order to obtain Lifeline telephone service can be punished by fine or imprisonment and can be barred from the program.

Lifeline eligible subscribers may also qualify for reliable home High-Speed Internet service up to 1.5 Mbps for $9.95* per month for the first 12 months of service. Please call 1-866-541-3330 or visit centurylink.com/internetbasics for more information.

• When far away from the area, call 911, or PSE’s 24-hour emergency hotline at 1-888-225-5773.

PSE’s natural gas technicians will respond immediately from our service centers at no charge to check out a problem.

• A hissing sound, blowing dirt or bubbles in a puddle may also indicate a possible natural gas leak.

Richard M. Stredicke, a longtime former city councilman in Renton, died Aug. 13 in Los Angeles. He was 78.

Stredicke started in city politics in 1969 as a “term-limits” advocate. He stayed on the City Council for 26 years and is most remembered for his work in acquiring and building Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park.

His tenure in office is one of the longest for any regional city councilman.

He retired in 1995 as effects of Multiple Sclerosis decreased his mobility and moved to Los Angeles where he eventually entered a rehabilitation center where he focused on his love of sports, politics, maple bars and a good game of chess or Scrabble, according to his brother Victor Stredicke.

Stredicke was an active advocate of council efforts to acquire land for what would become Gene Coulon Park, the construction of the Renton Library in the Highlands and he was an advocate of better commuCATERIN ServicesG

He also served in the U.S. Army, stationed at Schofield Army Base, Oahu, Hawaii.

While news editor of the Highline Times, he met Janet McKinney, whom he married in 1959. The couple had two children, Diane Stredicke of Rhinebeck, N.Y., and Richard Stredicke Jr. of Kent. He is also survived by brothers Victor Stredicke of Seatac and Al Stredicke of Covington.

A former newspaperman, Stredicke’s initial candidate brochure was a newspaper tabloid explaining the jobs of city officials and services offered City Council. He continued this “City of Renton Report” when in office until the city itself began a similar publication Stredicke was also opposed to metering of 405 freeway access because he felt it just transferred the state’s problems onto the streets of the city by backing up cars on the ramp and beyond. After he left the council, we got metered freeway entrances.

Councilmember Randy Corman, who served two years on the council with Stredicke, remembered the former councilman’s efforts on Monday as he lamented the traffic problems and blockages today stemming from the meters.

Corman also told a story about his first visit to the council, prior to his election when an issue in his neighborhood led him to a meeting. At that meeting, Corman said, Stredicke was so helpful that Corman and his wife sent a thank you note. He also called Stredicke “very independent-minded” and said he recalled Stredicke sometimes voting the opposite of the council just so the minority voice would be considered for the record.

The Federal Aviation Administration is seeking a new office building in the Renton/Seattle area.

“The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will be consolidating its workforce in the Northwest Mountain Region in one facility to better deliver their mission to provide the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world,” Stephanie Kenitzer, public affairs officer for the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), Northwest and Arctic Region wrote in an email.

“The consolidation will minimize redundant resources and increase operational efficiency,” she said.

GSA and the FAA are requesting a new lease to support approximately 1,600 employees. The FAA currently occupies about 360,000-square-feet in several different leased locations in Renton. The new requirements are for a maximum of 300,000 rentable square feet of office and related space.

“The FAA Regional Office campus in Renton currently house approximately 1,400 staff in four different but adjacent buildings,” wrote Allen Kenitzer, FAA spokesperson in an email. “This staff represent the administrative and technical support to support the National Airspace System in both the Northwest Mountain Region and the Western Service area. For example, the buildings house airport planners and inspectors, aerospace engineers, aviation technicians who maintain aviation equipment such as radar, air traffic management and aircraft safety inspectors.”

The maximum approved amount of rent for the space is $35 per square foot and GSA is responsible for the lease payments on behalf of the FAA. Then the FAA is responsible for reimbursing GSA. The initial offers were due Sept. 9 and the FAA hopes to occupy their new space by Aug. 1, 2017. The requests for final proposals are due Jan. 5 and due Jan. 26. The final proposal will be awarded March 30.

The City of Renton is one of the local municipalities putting together a proposal for the building.

In a report to the City Council this summer, Economic development Director Cliff Long said the city wanted to keep the FAA in town and was “working to do so.”

“It’s a very competitive process,” he said.

The sale of land is going through the City of Renton’s public process and Tuesday’s meeting was one of the first times any of the parties came together to address any of the issues raised in the 70 comments submitted to the city by the community.

“I believe the City of Renton is not paying attention to the needs in the Tiffany Park and the Cascade neighborhoods,” said resident Marina Higgins. “I have seen the development of the Highlands and think the city is paying disproportionately more attention and spending more city resources there.”

Higgins was one of a number of people who spoke up about their concerns with the new development. She also attended a meeting of the Renton School Board before the sale of the property and expressed her concerns there. She said she felt slighted at that meeting too, as if the decision had

already been made to sell the land without much community input.

School Board Director Lynn Desmarais was at Tuesday’s meeting in her official capacity and as a Tiffany Park resident.

“I thought the city staff did a good job of keeping the meeting focused on its purpose, which is their process going forward, while responding to many of the related questions,” she said. “I attended the meeting last night as a school board director, but also as a longtime resident of the neighborhood as it has been my home for 33 years, so I do understand and care about the concerns of the community.

“I also care about the Renton School District as a whole, and the decision to sell the property was based on the long-term interests of the district as it is growing and changing,” she continued.

Many of the concerns that have been brought up have to do with traffic, environmental impact, and

At Monday’s council meeting, nine people either spoke or said they agreed with another speaker, asking the city not to ban

“We’re just kind of out here hanging in the wind,” Prince said at a committee meeting Sept. 4.

“The city now has an opportunity to listen to us and to limit the variances they grant for this proposed development,” said Higgins. “This land is rich with bird habitat and wetlands and it would be good if the city preserved these characteristics.”

The next step is the issuance of the State Environmental Protection Act threshold determination or SEPA, which is set for Sept. 26. That will determine whether the project meets the state’s environmental regulations.

“The city held [Tuesday’s] community meeting in an effort to assists in channeling people’s questions and concerns into the public process so they are heard by the decision makers,” said Timmons.

Timmons would not speculate on whether Henly, USA, would be able to satisfy all the concerns that were raised about the project.

● QUOTE OF NOTE:

“I believe the City of Renton is not paying attention to the needs in Tiffany Park and Cascade neighborhoods” - local resident Marina Higgins at a community meeting on proposed development

State candidates benefit from cash given to others The battle for state legislative seats this fall will be fought in part with hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations recycled from the campaigns of incumbent lawmakers.

Since May, nearly $2.8 million has been collected by the Democratic and Republican caucuses in the state House and Senate from members up for election this year.

That money comes out of surplus accounts where lawmakers stash excess contributions, funds they do not need to spend because they face little or no opposition but want to use to help elect others of their party.

Not surprisingly, caucus leaders are among those recycling the largest sums. They hold positions of power, and in politics nothing attracts money quite like the scent of power.

On the Democratic side, House Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, has provided $80,000 to the House Democratic Campaign Committee, and Senate Minority Leader Sharon Nelson, D-Maury Island, has turned in $87,000 to the political operation of her caucus.

Among Republicans, House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, RSnohomish, and Sen. Jim Honeyford, R-Sunnyside, have each given $135,000 to their respective caucuses since spring. Both lawmakers are unopposed in November.

Giving back in this manner is an expectation in each of the four caucuses and has reached the point where members feel a sort of peer pressure to give.

It’s also an election ritual which experienced donors understand offers another way of participating in campaigns. They realize when they give to an incumbent who doesn’t need the money, their dollars could wind up assisting other candidates, and it’s all kosher.

Kristiansen’s experience is instructive on how this all works.

Until this year, he had never raised $150,000 for a campaign. He’s already topped $180,000 — a gain he says is no doubt due in part to his “new capacity” as House Minority Leader.

Kristiansen’s been assured of re-election since May, when no one filed to run against him. Yet contributions, many unsolicited, flowed into his campaign coffer through the August primary as if he was fighting for his political life. Many donors gave him the maximum $1,900 for the primary and general elections combined.

Donations from locals will be kept in his surplus account for future campaigns, he said. Money received from outside the area is what he’s transferred to the House Republican Organizational Committee to aid GOP candidates in Snohomish County and around the state, he said. So far that’s added up to $135,000.

Kristiansen’s experience is typical of members in all four caucuses in the House and Senate. The House Democratic Campaign Committee leads all with $1.1 million in Jerry Cornfield

RENTON

OPINION

[6] September 12, 2014

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR City of Renton doing plenty to help the city’s homeless In the past, I have been very critical of how the City of Renton government has handled crime and human services issues. I live on Burnett and I have never had a problem with the people going and coming from the Renton Salvation Army Church for the Renton Community Supper.

I have also attended the supper, and the people there are families, seniors, veterans, people out of work, people who I see every day in the community. I did not meet dealers and ne’er-do-wells. It is also unlikely that a homeless person elsewhere in King County is going to spend bus fare or gas just to come to Renton for a free dinner.

I would challenge the notion that the city takes a “hands-off approach to homelessness.”

The city supported the construction of the Compass Center veterans housing on South Second Street and Whitworth Avenue, a number of the City Council members and Chief Milosevich are on or have been on the board of the Salvation Army; multiple other members of the city government and staff are also actively involved.

The city has also supported the ARISE program, which is a rotating, interfaith men’s shelter, administered by Catholic Community Services in partnership with REACH (Renton

Ecumenical Association of Churches). REACH also established the REACH Center of Hope at Renton City Hall where the Renton jail used to be. The Center of Hope is a drop-in day shelter for women and children; overnight shelter locations rotate in a similar model to ARISE. We can see that the City of Renton government is actively engaged with communitybased organizations and has a hands-on approach to homelessness in our community.

The city also collaborates with the Renton Housing Authority, a partnership that is key in the revitalization of the Sunset Neighborhood, a project that aims to provide mixed housing and better access to services.

We know that when people are more active in communities that crime goes down. The solution isn’t police watching the trail; the solution has to be a community-based approach that can be sustained.

When people know their neighbors and use parks and trails, it reduces crime. I walk in the community every day, I use the Cedar River Trail almost every day and I have not seen an increase in sketchy activity, criminals or drug paraphernalia. The Renton Senior Center, the community garden and Jones Park all present opportunities for a more collaborative, interactive community.

As you can see from the results of the 2014 One Night Count, Renton does not have a [ more LETTERS page 7]

Voters probably didn’t anticipate such behavior when they approved Initiative 134 in 1992 to reform the state’s campaign finance system.

That measure did permit lawmakers to make transfers from their surplus accounts

to caucus committees. But the newly formed Public Disclosure Commission determined that the initiative limited the amount to the maximum for a contribution to a candidate.

In other words, a lawmaker would be allowed to give no more to the caucus than they could someone running for office — which today would be

$1,900.

The Legislature amended the law in 1995 to scrub the limit, and lawmakers have been active recyclers ever since.

asked him why he hit his brother.

Spencer turned to help his brother, thinking the driver would stay. But the driver left, without providing information, checking Andrew for injuries or calling for aid, according to court documents.

Rhyan thought he recognized the driver as a current or former Hazen High School student.

Andrew was treated and taken to Harborview.

Neighbors directed investigators to a house on nearby Whitman Place Northeast, where a white Magnum has parked.

The Magnum was parked in the garage, close to a porch that leads into the home.

An officer noticed some damage, but a resident told the officer she has no high-

the custody of his mother so he could return to school. He was arrested Sunday.

Andrew’s family, asking for privacy, issued a statement Tuesday through Harborview Medical Center.

“It is with a heavy heart that we share the death of our beloved Andrew. His amazing character and energy will be greatly missed.

Our prayers go out to the family of the driver – this was a tragic accident affecting many. We respectfully and firmly request privacy at this very difficult time.”

Finnell was a senior at the Renton School District’s Secondary Learning Center.

“The school has additional counselors available to speak with and console students and staff,” said district spokesman Randy Matheson.

The district is also working with Owen’s family “to decide on an appropriate educational setting,” he said.

Andrew’s family and friends helped officers locate Owens by looking at his Facebook page.

It was about 5:40 p.m. on Sunday when Andrew, riding his skateboard on Northeast First Place, saw a white Dodge Magnum approach him from behind, according to court documents. He put up his arm behind him, his palm up, to signal the

driver to slow down or back away.

But the driver continued, striking Andrew and causing life-threatening injuries.

Andrew’s brother Spencer Finnell and Rhyan Demile were nearby. As the Magnum approached him, Spencer slammed his hands on the car and asked the driver, “Why did you hit my brother?” The driver asked him why his brother was on the street. Spencer didn’t answer but again

By now Andrew’s brother and friends had come up with the name of a possible suspect. Rhyan Demile confirmed the suspect was the driver when he looked at Owens’ Facebook page.

Investigators were notified and went to address associated with Owens’ name. They were told the white Magnum belonged to Owens’ mother, who officers had contacted earlier on Whitman Place.

As officers stood by, the garage door opened and the Magnum was inside. Human flesh was noticed on the car.

Inside the home, Owens admitted to officers he had hit Andrew while driving the Magnum and then fled.

BY DEAN A. RADFORD dradford@rentonreporter.com

A 33-year-old Renton man was robbed at gunpoint Aug. 28 outside his home of about $400, including his winnings at a casino in downtown Renton.

Investigating officers suspected the robbery by four men, including one armed with a pistol, wasn’t random because he had just left the casino and may have been followed.

Security footage at the casino showed a man particularly interested in the victim and his winnings and when the victim left, he texted someone.

However, the 24-year-old man became defensive and said he wasn’t in the casino at the time the victim gambled but the time-dated video indicated otherwise.

He refused to show the officer his phone to determine whether he had texted and ended the interview.

The four men pushed the victim to the ground after he had just moved a garbage can from the street to the side of the house. They had heavy accents and scarves obscured their faces.

He gave one of them his car keys and wallet. They stole a wallet full of gift cards from the car. A neighbor saw them drive off in a dark sedan.

Records showed that someone began using his credit cards almost immediately.

A BELLIGERENT MAN: A 37-year-old Renton man got increasingly belligerent with officers Aug. 29 when they tried to question him about a harassment report.

The man was already yelling and swearing into his cell phone when an officer approached him at about 8:15 p.m.

He got out a device to record the interview, which he said was his right. The officer also recorded the interview.

The suspect wouldn’t get off the phone.

“I don’t want to get killed here,” said the man, who is white. The officer asked who was going to kill him.

“You guys are the threat. Just like Missouri,” referring to the police-involved shooting of a black teenager in Ferguson, Mo. The officer told him there was no reason to hurt him.

We’ve Got You Covered

Then there was the merchandise in his two bags.

He was apologetic. He told officers he was homeless and had bought the clothes on the street from a “booster,” admitting the clothes has probably been stolen.

The recovered items were returned to Fred Meyer. The Seattle man was booked into the SCORE regional jail for obstructing officers.

BOTH FIGHTERS CITED: Two men were cited for fourthdegree assault Aug. 29 in Kennydale after they fought over payment for the construction work one was doing for the other.

The subcontractor from Renton claims he’s owed $3,000 for the work, but the other man, who lives in Seattle, says payment isn’t due until the work is finished.

The subcontractor says he was called a racial epithet, which the other man denied. Blows were exchanged. Both men were cited and charges were referred to a prosecutor.

SHE INGESTED HEROIN: A 25-year-old Des Moines woman swayed, felt very hot and became nauseated after she was arrested Aug. 19 at Wal-Mart downtown for possessing heroin.

She needed to see a doctor. A doctor would check her at the SCORE regional jail. But she didn’t want to wait.

Just before her arrest, she swallowed heroin and several methodone pills.

The officer drove her to Valley Medical Center, where she was X rayed. Inside her stomach was a large piece of metal – the clip used to secure the bag of heroin.

Surgeons operated immediately.

The woman had been stopped for shoplifting; a records check showed a felony warrant for drug possession.

In a search, officers found a small amount of a brownliquid substance or heroin. A small purse contained capped and uncapped needles, two of which contained heroin.

She hadn’t shot up yet because she was interrupted after she went into the Wal-Mart restroom.

Officers also found a drivers license belonging to another woman. She was released pending the filing of charges.

SHOPLIFTER MAKES CLEAN GETAWAY: A security officer at Fred Meyer on the Benson Highway arriving at the start of his day Aug. 26 spotted a known shoplifter in the parking lot.

He followed as the man walked in, grabbed a shopping cart and walked to the vacuum cleaners. The suspect put two Shark Rocket vacuums, valued at $200 each, into the cart and removed the alarms.

He then pushed the cart out of the store without paying.

He drove off in a late-model, mint-green Honda Civic. The security officer took down a license plate number.

The suspect is described as a white male, mid 30s, about 6-foot-2 and weighing 215 pounds who looks like a football player. His sandy-colored hair is cut in a short crew cut.

Investigators have security video of the theft.

The following information was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports.

Renton man robbed of winnings at gunpoint

“You will,” the man responded.

The officer could smell alcohol on the man’s breath. The officer placed him in handcuffs after he acted like he was getting ready to fight.

A crowd of about 15 people gathered, drawn by the suspect’s yelling, cussing and screaming. He was positively identified by the woman who told officers he had threatened her.

He was arrested for investigation of breach of peace. He threatened to murder the officer and family; a spit sock was placed over his head. The officer amended the possible charge to disorderly conduct.

On the way to the SCORE regional jail, the suspect described in detail how he intended to kill police officers, mainly the officer transporting him.

HE NEEDS TO BACK OFF: A 59-year-old Seattle man who inserted himself into an interview a police officer was conducting Aug. 29 outside Wal-Mart just couldn’t leave well enough alone.

Clearly, the man had no connection to the interview, but became defensive and argumentative when asked to step away. He called the officer a retard and swore at him.

He walked off, then returned less than a minute later. He finally left but returned, circling back toward them on his bike. He rode directly in front of another officer’s cruiser, which stopped abruptly.

He took a fighting stance but was handcuffed by the two officers.

The suspect, who is white, called the officers racist and ranted about the police shooting in Ferguson, Mo. He claimed he was being raped while he was searched.

His breath smelled strongly of beer.

He was booked into the SCORE regional jail for fourthdegree assault.

SHOPLIFTER CAUGHT AFTER CHASE: Officers were already in the parking lot of Fred Meyer downtown Aug. 30 arresting a burglary suspect when they heard screams the store had been robbed and the suspects were running.

Officers caught up with one of the runners at an apartment complex on Maple Avenue Southwest, just as another suspect approached carrying Fred Meyer merchandise in bags. He turned and ran after ignoring an officer’s commands to get on the ground.

Two officers pursued the 23-year-old Seattle man on foot. One officer was hurt when he threw the bags at her, hitting her in the face. She told the other officer to continue the foot pursuit. She was later treated at Valley Medical Center.

The suspect’s loosely fitting pants fell to his mid thighs as he ran The injured officer had caught up by now and assisted in taking the suspect into custody after she hit him in the back of the head to get him to relax.

Stuffed down the legs of his pants were packages of underwear, a new pair of jeans and a pair of new tennis shoes.

THEFT CAUGHT ON CAMERA: The theft of a woman’s purse was caught on security cameras Aug. 28 at the Shell station on Park Avenue North.

The victim, a 24-year-old Renton woman, went inside the Shell to buy some items.

When she returned, her purse was gone. Inside were her insurance card and pepper spray.

RAYS center renamed in honor of volunteer Cynthia Green

Support Group.) It’s basically a network of relatives helping relatives keeping kids out of foster care. Wells reports that there are 35 families in their present network, but hundreds more that they don’t know about. It is the biggest and most successful kinship network in the county. Green was awarded, also on Saturday, a PhD Award for Persistence, Hope and Determination by the Kinship Network of King County.

“My mother’s work with RAYs continues to reverberate across the Skyway/West Hill Community via the many lives she touched during her time at the center,” said her son Marcus, in an email. “She is, and remains, a matriarch to the community and the dedication of the building pays testimony to that.”

Many dignitaries and officials turned out for the dedication on Saturday, including RAYS Board of Directors, Carolyn Parnell; Richard Brooks, executive director, and Ricky Robinson, the first RAYS director, who hired Green.

Cynthia Green could not be reached for comment.

BY TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com

Last Saturday the Skyway community turned out to celebrate an unsung hero of 18 years at Renton Area Youth Services family center.

Her name is Cynthia Green and to many in that community she means a great deal. She has been the front desk program assistant for RAYS, but one of her supervisors, Morgan Wells, will tell you that her title never really captured what Green did.

“Cynthia was a really exceptional person,” said Wells.

“She touched a lot of people here and I think her impact is felt far beyond these walls. And it was just a great opportunity to stop and celebrate her and, like I said, mark her legacy going forward.

RAYS renamed their family center the Cynthia A. Green Family Center, set up an emergency basic needs fund in her name and King County proclaimed Sept. 6 “Cynthia Green Day.” Green manned the front desk for RAYS at their Skyway location, but more than that she listened to peoples’ stories and helped them access resources for years.

The official South King County Pride Festival is set for this weekend in Kent.

The Renton City Council on Monday passed a resolution supporting the event.

The three-day Pride festival begins at 7 p.m.

Friday with “Gay Bingo” at the Kent Senior Center, 600 E. Smith St., Kent. On Saturday, the fun continues with open mic and drag performances at Nashville’s, 114 Railroad Ave. and the AC Tavern, 209 E. Meeker St. The celebration culminates on Friday with the Pride Festival at 11 a.m. at Burlington Green Park, West Meeker Street and Railroad Avenue North.

National Day of Service Sept. 13 The City of Renton is partnering with local agencies, Sept. 13 in observance of the National Day of Ser-

PARTS & SERVICE

“If we didn’t know where the resource was, she would make phone calls until she found something to help,” said Wells.

Green is also responsible for RAYS (Kinship Caregivers vice and Remembrance.

By partnering with local agencies, the city hopes to create opportunities for residents to participate in the day to remember and reflect on 9/11.

The city is asking those

groups or organizations planning volunteer projects in Renton to contact Casey Stanley, at 425-430-6600 or cstanley@rentonwa.gov, to post the information on the city’s webpage.

...Go Seahawks

Russell Wilson, Seahawks look to make history in just his third season

BY JOHN BOYLE jboyle@heraldnet.com

Russell Wilson avoids the defense during Sunday’s 36-16 victory over the Green Bay Packers. KEVIN CLARK, Everett Herald

Pete Carroll is the optimistic type — to say the least — but even he has to admit that the development of Russell Wilson in 2014 has been something of a pleasant surprise.

This summer in training camp, Carroll talked about his quarterback’s control and command of the offense, and said that while Wilson is already a very good quarterback, “he’s got a couple more years, maybe three or four more years of continuing before he really reaches it.”

Three preseason games and a 1-0 start later, Carroll might have to re-evaluate his timetable for Wilson reaching his pinnacle. Either that or the rest of the league might as well concede another Super Bowl or two to the Seahawks in three or four more years if Wilson is still that far from his peak.

Since that first preseason game when Wilson played behind a patchwork offensive line that was missing three starters, he has been nearly perfect. Overall this preseason, Wilson led the Seahawks to nine touchdowns and two field goals in 13 possessions. The Seahawks punted on their first possession the preseason, missed one field goal, and scored every other time Wilson was on the field.

Yes, those were only preseason games, but by all accounts Wilson looks ready to take a big leap in Year 3, which is saying something considering how good he has been in each of his first two seasons.

In the season opening win against Green Bay, Wilson went 19-for-28 for 191 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also rushed seven times for a total of 29 yards.

“I’m thrilled about what we are seeing,” Carroll said. “I didn’t know how much farther he would go from last year to this year. It seems like he is really, really in control of what’s happening. ... I hate to tell him that I’m a little surprised at him doing well, but maybe that’s the case.”

And maybe by now we shouldn’t be surprised by anything Wilson does in his career. He was an overlooked third-round pick. He was said to be too short to win in the NFL. Yet from winning the starting job as a rookie to leading the Seahawks to the playoffs that year to winning a title in Year 2, Wilson has made a habit of exceeding expectations. So what in the world will he “I’m thrilled about do for an encore? what we are seeing.

Moments after a heartbreakI didn’t know how ing loss in Atlanta two seasons much farther he ago, Wilson told Carroll that the would go from last Seahawks were going to the Super Bowl the next season, and they did. year to this year. It seems like he’s really Now, Wilson talks about wanting in control of what’s to be legendary, about wanting to happening.” win multiple titles. Are you going to doubt him, especially after seeing Head Coach Pete Carroll him play this preseason?

Cornerback Richard Sherman, who faces Wilson in practice on a regular basis, says he has seen the young quarterback coming into his own, says he’s more decisive this year, while safety Earl Thomas says Wilson and the offense are now just as good as the Seahawks’ defense.

And receiver Percy Harvin says of Wilson, “The sky is the limit for that guy.”

If last year’s Super Bowl title was a one-time deal for the Seahawks, that 2013 team will be remembered as one that won it all on the strength of a historically good defense.

If the Seahawks can repeat this year, or win three or four titles over a five- or six-year stretch, that dynasty not only will be remembered for Carroll and John Schneider, who built the team, but also for Wilson, the would-be face of a dynasty.

And that is what’s really at stake for Wilson, beginning today and this season. He already has proven he can be a very good NFL quarterback and that he can win. But now he’s on the precipice of greatness. If he really does take another step forward, he’ll bury the silly notion once and for all that he’s a “game manager” and put himself among

Scenes from opening weekend Both Hazen and Lindbergh opened their 2014 football season this past weekend at Renton Memorial Stadium and as usual, there was more to the event than just the games. Turn to page 15 for recaps of both games. Renton plays its home opener today, Sept. 12, at Renton Memorial Stadium.

[ WILSON from page 12] the ranks of Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.

Wilson is still rattles off the same clichés, from “championship mindset” to “100 yards is 100 yards” to “the separation is in the preparation” to “constant quest for knowledge.” However, beyond his goto sayings, he also can sense that he’s ready

to do big things this season. Some of that has to do with the players around him, most notably a healthy Harvin, and the expanded playbook that comes with that, but Wilson knows some of that growth will be is own. “(The playbook) definitely has grown a lot, in terms of all things that we can do,” Wilson said. “A lot of it is because of our personnel, but also because I’ve grown

a lot more in the checks that I can make and in learning the game. That’s my goal.

I’m only going into Year 3. This is going to be the beginning of Year 3 for me, so I’m excited about continuing to get back on the field every opportunity I get whether it’s practice or a game.”

Wilson figures to be spectacular this season, especially after leading the Seahawks to a decisive 36-16 win over the

Packers, an early-season favorite.

“It’s everything you can ask for on opening night,” Carroll said.

That’s true both for the Seahawks and for Wilson, their quarterback who is ready to make a big leap in 2014.

It’s mid-September, that means time to dig and divide

THE COMPLEAT HOME GARDENER

Marianne Binetti

The middle of September marks the start of the fall gardening season but you also need to keep spring blooms in mind.

Rhododendrons and azaleas are making flower bud this month so keep them watered for maximum spring bloom.

Hydrangeas are also making flowers for next summer so avoid cutting back your hydrangeas in the fall.

September is also the perfect time of year to dig and divide all types of iris.

Don’t be afraid to lift the clumps right out of the ground and snip off the foliage leaving just a few inches of leaf.

Use a sharp knife to separate the rhizomes and toss out the oldest, middle section of the roots. Replant these iris roots but don’t bury the rhizomes too deep – they should be just below the surface of the soil.

Any iris plants that have failed to bloom will have a fresh outlook on life after division and will reward you with renewed vigor in the spring. Dividing in September is good for all types of iris, the bearded, the species and the Pacific Coast iris.

Here are the top three shrubs stopping traffic in local gardens – you can find them at local nurseries this month and

once planted they will give you years of color each autumn when the rest of your plants are growing faded and summer weary: Rose of Sharon (Hardy Hibiscus) There are a bunch of new varieties of this old fashioned shrub but the best behaved with eye-catching blooms in my garden is a reliable Rose of Sharon variety called ‘Helene’ with snow white blooms accented with a deep red eye. Drought and cold resistant this shrub gives a tropical look to any garden and can be grown in a large pot as a patio plant.

The naked truth is that the Hibiscus syriacua varieties lose their foliage early in the fall and don’t grow new leaves until late spring. This means you are left with a leafless shrub at least six months of the year.

My solution is to use the woody frame as a support for spring flowering vines.

Clematis makes a great partner for many shrubs but is an especially useful vine for draping through a naked hibiscus. Look for hardy hibiscus in shades of purple and lavender blue as well as hybrids with double and huge single blooms.

Don’t prune the Rose of Sharon hibiscus shrub in the fall – it is a bit cold sensi-

tive and prefers never to be pruned. If you must shape it up just remove any awkward branches in late spring after all danger of frost has passed.

Smoke Trees (Cotinus coggygria) The ‘Royal Purple’ smoke tree is the most common variety but the lime green foliage of the ‘Golden Spirit’ smoke tree will also add a pop of color to a sunny garden bed. The name smoke tree refers to the dry panicles or seed heads that arise from the plant in late summer and look a bit like puffs of smoke emerging from the leaves.

This is the perfect plant for dry soil, rocky soil or areas where you do not want to irrigate. If left unpruned the smoke tree will grow into a small but rather boxy looking tree. You can also keep this shrub compact by cutting it to the ground every spring.

In England the smoke tree is used in perennial borders as a back drop for summer flowers especially in the back of the border where it might never get water.

Add more drama without more drinking to your smoke tree by underplanting it with silver foliage plants such as lamb’s ear, dusty miller or lavender. Another tidy option is to pile gray stones around the base of this sun loving plant as a weed block.

Ornamental Purple-Leaf Grape (Vitis vinivera ‘Purpurea’) This magnificent vine is worth searching for at local nurseries as the eye-popping color from the deep purple leaves begins in August and continues until frost.

The small grapes themselves are not edible but the foliage and good manners of this vine makes up for the weak and random production of sour tasting fruit.

Train this vine to grow up the trunk of a white birch tree or to festoon an old stump or garden shed. The rich color comes when you most need it in the early autumn garden.

In my garden I grow the ornamental grape vine in a mostly shaded site but it really prefers full sun for the most intense leaf color. You can cut this vine almost to the ground in early spring or let it reach for the sky and scramble through your entire garden.

Ornamental purple leaf grape vines are breathtakingly beautiful when planted with purple asters and the dusky purple shades of ornamental cabbage and kale.

Highlanders soccer drops first two games of year

BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com

It’s been a rough start to the 2014 season thus far for the Hazen Highlander girls soccer team.

The Highlanders, last year’s Seamount League champs, are now 0-2 on the young season, having dropped Tuesday’s match with Kennedy 7-0.

In their first game of the season this past weekend, Hazen traveled to Coeur d’Alene to

face 2-0 Lake City High School, but the trip did not go as hoped, with Hazen on the losing end of a 4-0 score.

In their first two games the Timberwolves out scored them 9-0 and 6-0.

“They’re very good. They dictated the pace of the game in the first half,” said Hazen Coach Ken Matthews in an email In the second half, Hazen was able to get its

Small but dedicated Renton swim team ready to get going

passing game going a little more.

“Some of our player combinations were a pleasant surprise. All and all - the game gave us the competitive level we needed,” said a pleased Matthews. “It was a great test and we’ll get better because of this game.”

Hazen was scheduled to play Auburn Mountainview on Thursday and will face Lindbergh Tuesday at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Despite a difficult practice schedule that requires swimmers to commute to a pool, the Renton Indians girls swim team is ready for another season in the water.

According to Coach Diane Pavelin, the Indians experienced no major losses over the past year and have several top swimmers returning to form this season.

Senior Angela Vu, a sprinter, will lead the team this year. Vu is coming off a season in which she was named to the All-Seamount second team and qualified for districts.

Distance swimmer and fellow senior Samantha Honmoyo, who placed in the 200- and 500-yard freestyle at leagues and qualified for the 200 in districts ,will also guide the young team. Sophomore distance swimmer Hannah Tunis is also expected to make an impact this season.

Along with their top returners, Pavelin said freshman Harley Rose could place in a number of league events this fall in the distance events and freshman Kayla Honmoyo shows great promise in the sprints.

Pavelin is keeping her expectations for her team in range. After a 3-6 finish last season, she hopes her team, will have more swimmers place in leagues and district and hopes at least one of her swimmers qualifies for the state meet.

Renton opens its season against Auburn Sept. 16 at the Hazen pool.

Lindbergh Eagles football picks up right where it left off

BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com

Despite the loss of five starters from last year’s Seamount Championship team, the Lindbergh Eagles football team picked up where it left off last season and began the 2014 campaign with a 30-0 win over Ingraham Friday at Renton Memorial Stadium.

The two squads battled back and forth through the first quarter of play, with neither team able to break through.

But early in the second, quarterback Devon Jackson hit receiver Derek Armstrong for a 40yard touchdown strike. Armstrong then ran in the 2-point conversion for an 8-0 lead. After getting the ball back, the Eagles again drove the ball down the field before punching it in on a 1-yard run.

Lindbergh headed into halftime with a 14-0

lead.

The Eagles continued the scoring in the third quarter, with Jackson throwing a 48-yard touchdown strike, his second of the day.

D’Angelo Faust capped the scoring for Lindbergh with a 34-yard touchdown run of his own, followed by catching a 2-point conversion pass to give the Eagles a 30-0 lead.

Lindbergh moves to 1-0 on the young season and travels to White River on Friday for a matchup with the Hornets.

To comment on this story view it online at www. rentonreporter.com. Reach Editor Brian Beckley at 425-255-3484, ext. 5050.

Lindbergh’s D’Angelo Faust makes a cut during the Eagles’ Sept. 5 game. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter

Hazen starts strong but falls in opener

BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com

Despite a strong opening first quarter that saw the Highlanders firmly in control, the Lake Washington Kangs rallied through the second half of the game and handed Hazen a 32-12 loss in new coach David Kilpatrick White’s first game with the team.

After receiving the opening kickoff, Hazen took its opening drive all the way down the field, scoring on a 15-yard touchdown pass from Nolan Hoover to Marquis Lee that started with a muffed snap and a near fumble.

Hoover recovered the ball, turned and flipped to Lee, who broke a few tackles as he sprinted into the endzone for a 6-0 Hazen lead.

After missing the 2-point conversion attempt, Hazen

surprised Lake Washington with an onside kick that the Highlanders recovered, though they didn’t score.

The Hazen defense also looked good early, as they forced and recovered a fumble on a long pass reception.

Later in the second, J. Conklin returned a fumble 98 yards for a touchdown and a 12-0 Hazen lead.

But Lake Washington would not be held down, with R. Simonson scoring a touchdown on a 5-yard run for a 12-7 halftime score.

Unfortunately for Hazen, the second half was all Kangs.

In the third, quarterback D. Mann had a pair of touchdown passes. The first was a 30-yard strike to S. Muller to make it 14-12 Lake Washington, which was followed by a 7-yard touchdown to B. Inslee and a 2012 lead.

In the fourth, Lake Washington handed the ball to E. Phillips for a 10-yard touchdown run and then a 70-yard touchdown run to seal the 32-12 victory for the Kangs.

Hazen heads to Liberty on Sept. 12.

Off to the races

Lindbergh’s Daniel Langer was the team’s top finisher Saturday at the Tahoma Coed Relays. Langer finished 13th with a time of 11:48. Renton’s Hameed Maktoof was the top local finisher in eighth. VICKI MADDY, For the Renton Reporter
